For the last few hours, I've been desperately searching for a solution to my problem.

I'm trying to get a Japanese version of Firefox on my FB 9. It doesn't matter if I have an English version/option or not.

Here's what I've tried so far:1) I changed my Fluxbox language to Japanese and installed all of the required packages.2) Downloaded and tried to compile jp version of Firefox. This failed because there is no README or configure files after unpacking.

You don't compile Firefox my friend it is already compiled. All you need to do is to unpack the tarball to a folder maybe in your home folder. Close any existing Firefox instance then start it by running

Okay, I closed Firefox and followed your instructions... It is still very much all English I know I downloaded Firefox from their Japanese website...The thing is that, I'm not sure if this is a Firefox problem or a Mint problem.

I thought about uninstalling Firefox, but from the exploring I've done on my system, it looks complicated...

I couldn't open Firefox using the terminal, so I went to the folder and opened it from there. The Firefox icon no longer appears, and I can't figure out how to change the shortcut in my menu lol But it's definitely the Japanese version, and all of my bookmarks, plugins and preferences were saved, so everything else will come eventually ^.^

Thanks for all the help!!Arigatou gozaimasu *bow*

EDIT: To change shortcuts for programs in the root menu:.mint-fm2/submenus

For example, to change the shortcut for Firefox, I used Thunar File Manager.View > Hidden Files.Then access.mint-fm2 > submenus > Internet.A text editor will pop up, I found Firefox Web Browser and changed {firefox} to {/location/of/new/firefox}. Saved and it works like a charm ^.^ I hope this is helpful *bow*
